Waterproof case #44

@nathanprayzo I loaded the models into the Makerbot software but even though the 3D viewer on Github and on Makerbot shows them looking okay, once it slices them to prepare for printing some things are off. Maybe some inverted normals? It's hard to tell since it renders no problem in the two viewers.

@brianfoshee At your convenience, can you retry the top? I found and fixed a few inverted faces on the inside of the design.

brianfoshee commented 9 years ago

@nathanprayzo it's pretty close, it looks like the bottom face itself may be inverted as a final fix.

@brianfoshee How about now?

brianfoshee commented 9 years ago

@nathanprayzo the bottom looks good. The screw holes aren't coming through now, though. It might make it quicker to download the Makerbot software so you can run the model through the slicer to see how it looks.

Once you have it installed, click 'Add File' to add the .stl model, click 'Export Print File' and wait for it to process, then click 'Print Preview' to see how it sliced.

@brianfoshee Thanks for the advice, downloading the software now.

nathanprayzo commented 9 years ago

@brianfoshee Latest commit looks good in the maker bot software.

brianfoshee commented 9 years ago

@nathanprayzo looks good! Did you mean to remove the Prazyo text? I can print this tonight and will let you know how it looks.

nathanprayzo commented 9 years ago

Awesome, can't wait to see how it comes out! Yeah, I intentionally removed it for now just to make the design simpler/smaller.

It printed pretty spot on!
